    Hey,

    Ive been taking aripirazole now for about 2 years. Not for anxiety and depression though.

    Ive found it works well for me but i have put on about 5 stone in the last 2 years and i dont know whether its related or not but get quite tired throughout the day but find it hard to stay asleep during the night and wake up frequently.

    Hope this helps?

    Hello. I switched to aripiprazole from quetiapine and it's been really helpful. I no longer want to sleep 20 hours a day and my symptoms are managed.
